    is the system installation the same on a replacement or is it anything different? Does the system come packaged like a brand new system would?

    If you mean OS install, then it should be the same.

    Depends on if it was new, or refurbished.

    Do the replacements come with papers stating its a replacement? Or does it come as if it was brand new with no evidence its a replacement? Just curious

    If it was a new replacement, then no stickers would on the replacement. If it was refurnished, then it would say refurnished on the bottom with a green sticker.
